Talgarth update

Not a lot of wind yesterday and today but nevertheless we flew, both real gliders and models. Today the views were less than ideal as the vis was pretty bad but the ridge was working nicely all the way up to Hay Bluff. Capt Field took the opportunity to add a type rating - Lightning, A380, T21 - and then had another go in 319, after which he was completely frozen but still grinning.

In the right hand seat for a change

After the toys were safely away the sky cleared to the west providing another pretty sunset.

Jim says he's going to a open mike event tonight, we await news of how his performance is received.
